1.0 out of 5 stars
A dull history of an interesting topic,
By Bomojaz (South Central PA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Journalistic Standards in Nineteenth-Century America (Paperback)
"News" in the earliest American newspapers was primarily idea-oriented and political. By the Civil War, it was becoming more personal and sensational. By the end of the century, an entertainment factor was added to the equation. What should be an interesting and lively account of a fascinating subject, however, comes across as a mere textbook--dull and superficial. A disappointing book.
